Homeless man acquitted after 92 days jailed
A homeless man spent 92 days in jail before being acquitted on Tuesday after a district court heard that the assault and impersonation charges relied on inconsistent statements. The defendant, jailed at Frederick County Adult Detention Center since arrest over a $15,000 bail, argued no fraudulent intent and the witnesses did not fear him. The judge dismissed the assault charges affecting the boys and related impersonation offense, with the state case left unresolved on a May 1 date dispute.
